My daughter got 226 for psle. Is it wise for me to put my top 6 choice as

1. nan chiau
2. Chong Cheng
3.Katong Convent
4.Tkgs
5.Tks
6.tamasek?

Thanks

Sry, so just wanna ask again, is it wise for me to choose those choice of school?

vanthevehicle1998:

Thanks! but there are no choices in the east side except those.:( I am appealing for my top 2 choice of school. since both schools are asking for my CCA. choosing school is a headache...

I suggest you erase everything & start on blank page again ... think carefully & re-evaluate the schools COP versus your daughter's T-score.

I would remove nan chiau & CCHM since your daughter's T-score is \"quite far off COP of these schools\" - be realistic.

OK since u r 2 points away from Katong Convent. U can try but please put it down as 1st choice. Please do not waste your first choice on some \"unreachable target\".

How about St Anthony's Canossian Convent - what is COP for this school? It is located in the East too.

Seriously, it is not that big a headache if you exercise your choices wisely. One has to be realistic with the choices, otherwise, it's regrets all the way .... Sorry, I hope I am not sounding too harsh here.

Yes I agree...I would not like to get into a school based on the exact cut-off, should cut some slack....in order to balance well in the chosen environment.

My dd’s score is 244 + 2 HMT.


1st choice: CHIJ St Nicks
2nd choice: Anglican
3rd choice: CCHM
4th choice: NanChiau
5th choice: ZhongHua
6th choice: PLMGS

What do u think?

I live in Hougang area. Problem is travel time, estimated: CHIJ 1.5hrs, Anglican 1hr, CCHM 45 min, NanChiau 40min

My hubby thinks travelling time is not important as long as the child likes the school.

What would you consider to be acceptable travelling time?

Very, very wise advice coming from a Student! :celebrate:

My dd wants to try for RGS (260).


I am worried of

1). Snobbish students who will do anything to get ahead

2). That being amongst the lowest range of psle scores to get in, she may not be able to cope.

Any advice? Am I just being paranoid?

So Jieting, tell your son to brace up. PSLE is only 1 small hurdle - road is still long.[/quote]


I second that because outside world do not look at you PSLE results but it is whether you can work.[/quote]


Thanks for your advice. My son is better now.


For T-Score of 230, can I choose:

1.) TKSS but COP 234,(Impossible?)
2.) Maris Stella, COP 232,
3.) Nan Chiau, COP 231,
4.) Temasek Sec school, COP 230,
5.) ?
6.) ?

I stay in Pasir Ris so Maris Stella is it too far? And how to go there?

Anyone can help? :?:
